West Bromwich Albion v Manchester City: Squad sheets

This promises to be an awkward fixture for City. Albion are only a point behind the champions after winning their opening four homes games in the top flight for the first time since 1919. Make it five in a row and Albion fans will start to believe something special can be achieved this season. City will be without the injured quartet of David Silva, Jack Rodwell, Maicon and Javi García against a side that Roberto Mancini rates highly. "In this moment, I think West Bromwich is the team that has played the best football," he said. Stuart James
